It was so good talking to you all on skype on Christmas! It was definitely a different Christmas than the normal but it was probably one of my favorite. It was really good to talk to you all!
This week has been so great! I feel like I just talked to you guys so I dont have much to say.
We went and visited a less active family. We had an awesome lesson and the spirit was so strong! They were one of the very first people baptized here in Nyíregyháza. They got offended though and unfortunately fell away. We had a really good program with there and the spirit was so strong! They were planning on coming back to church and they started reading their scriptures. But unfortunately, they feel like they need more time. It is so sad what anger and bitterness can do to someones testimony. They are an awesome family and hopefully we can get them coming again!
Our investigators are doing awesome! They are progressing so well! We met a new couple two weeks ago. They are the coolest! They are both severelly physically disabled. But they are the mos humble people I have ever met! They make us laugh everytime we go over to their house. Today, I was asking them about the new year and they told us that they are sure it is going to be better because they have finally had sisters sent to their house instead of the elders haha! I laughed so hard! They have had the elders over a few times over the years, but apparently they didnt like them as much as the sisters. It was so funny when he said it!
We also got to go over to R's house and meet her family. We were the first missionaries that her family has met. She has an awesome family! She has 2 nephews that are 4 years old and they reminded me of my nephews! It was so much fun to have kids around again! It feels like it has been a long time since I have actually talked to a little kid haha! We had a lot of fun!
That is pretty much all that has been happening here. One of the sisters here lost her mom right before Christmas. That made me think a lot of how blessed I am too! I think she is going to stay. She is really strong! She could use some prayers though!
Also today, I finished the Book of Mormon in 60 days....the time it took for Joseph Smith to translate the BOM. What an awesome experience! I would strongly recommend it family :) I honestly felt a little sad finishing it....reading it so fast just made me realize how powerful the BOM really is. We can learn so much from the BOM. The BOM is just so plain and simple and powerful. If you keep God's commandments and follow Christ, you will ALWAYS overcome your hardships and trials. God's commandments are so powerful and are really given to protect us.
Anyways, I hope you all have a great new years! We will be! We get 2 days for p day this week! Which we will probably spend inside because apparently it gets a llittle crazy outside on New Years. haha! People are already starting to get ready for it everywhere. Hungary is just the best! Love you all lots! THanks for the letters! Happy New Years!
